Apple Crisp

Fall screams apples. It just does. It’s a fact. There’s apple sauce, apple pie, apple muffins, and even savory uses for apple but as the temperatures drop and wool sweaters come out nothing beats a killer apple crisp. I whipped this up last night for some friends who came over for dinner and it was a big hit! Serve it up with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and you’ve got yourself an awesome and easy crowd-pleasing dessert…and maybe breakfast 🙂
